Unto A New World

A/N:
Celestia made Jackson a prince because she knew he and Luna had feelings for eachother, and under usual rules and common sense, a princess must be with a prince, not a commoner. There have been no intentions of the characters being married yet, and there probably wont be for many, many chapters to come, IF it happens. I don't even know. I'm just writing as it flows from my head.
Oh and Celestia has all the power she could want over the kingdom, anything she says goes. So she makes him a prince, he's a prince.
How do you think any kings and queens, princesses and princes started originally? "I am now your king because I can be, come obey me bro"
I DON'T EVEN.

Chapter Eight: Lessons

I awoke to find Luna literally ontop of me. Her wings were spead out to either side of the bed, they were really big!
I noticed she started moan and her wings fluttered.
"N-No" She mumbled "Don't" her wings retracted and she rolled off me to my right. "NO!" she screamed as she sat up quickly, panting and sweating.
"Luna! Are you okay? You were saying things in your sleep" I told her.
Luna snuggled up close to me and held me tighter than she had ever held me before, and started to weep into my shirt. I could tell she was scared.
"Hey" I said quietly "It's alright, It's over now" I tried to reassure her. "Want to talk about it?"
"It was about C-celestia" she started, I could just make out her words from her sobs and sniffles "We w-were in Everfree Forrest, the s-scouts reported that there was an army on the h-horizons so Celestia and I had gone in t-to try negotiate with them. T-they captured us and I saw Celestia b-being dragged off before t-they killed her right i-infront of me!" She cried heavier with her last words.
"It's alright, it was just a dream" I told her, not letting go. I looked over to the clock and it read three twenty in the afternoon. "Cry it all out Luna, it's alright" Luna took my offering and balled to intensely that the front of my white, gold buttoned shirt that Rarity had made me, had a long streak of Luna's tears following the creases, all the way down to my brown pants.

I looked up the the clock and it now read five forty. Luna had been crying for two hours and wasn't letting up.
"C'mon Luna, we have to go see your sister, it's nearly time for you to go to court" I told her as she looked up at me.
"I suppose you're right" Luna replied weakly "Will you come with me again?"
I hesitated. There were things that I was planning to do, but I couldn't leave her like this. "I will" I said as I helped her stand up. She wobbled a bit and had to lean on me as she cleaned herself up. "I'll be waiting for you outside" I told Luna, she nodded and I walked to the door, opened it and went to my chambers.

I had a quick shower and within five minutes I was dressed in a nice attire, consisting of a black dress shirt and black pants accompanied by leather shoes, courtesy of Rarity. I lost myself in thought, and before I knew it I was outside Luna's waiting patiently.
I knocked three times on the door. "Just a moment!" I heard Luna's voice call. From inside the door, I could hear rattling and things being tossed around, aswell as the clcik clacking of hooves on a marble floor.
Then it all went quiet.
The door slowly opened and I saw Luna's eye look at me before she swung it open. "You should have said it was you!" she gasped.
"Who else could it be?" I asked as Luna rubbed her chin in thought.
"Well" She started as she drew in a large breath "A servant, A guard, Celestia, a royal squire, somepony coming to arange an agreement and alliance from another kingdom, somepony declaring war on Equestria, a dragon, Viny-" before she could go on, I put a hand to her mouth.
"I get it" I chuckled "I'm sorry"
"Thats alright Jackson" She assured and smiled "lets get going to the court room" she said as she led me out.

Tonights court duties were much the same as the last, but it was much shorter. Luna didn't want to speak so she had me announce her decisions.
At the end, the court slowly dispatched the room and left the castle. I led Luna up to my room, which I had set up two guitars plugged into their own amps, courtesy of Vinyl, who kept the rest of my instruments safe.
"Ready for your seventh lesson Luna?" I asked before taking both guitars in my hands. I held out a basic electric guitar, which was black with an ebony neck that had pearlescent designes running along inbetween the frets. I made this particular guitar Luna's, because it remined me of how majestic and noble she was, much like the guitar itself, and if a dark alicorn was to play a white or blue guitar it would look silly. It was like the guitar was made for Luna.
She grasped it in her magic and floated it over to her, holding it how I showed her. She took the pick out from it's position between the strings and gave them a strum, which she smiled at.
So far, she had learnt the names of each string, the positions of each fret and how to easily move between each one, how to play a power chord, and a very basic song: The Campfire Song.
"What am I learning today Jackson? I've been practicing whenever I can" She said as she beamed a huge smile.
"Well thats the right attitude!" I replied, which made her smile more "I think you're ready to learn a new song"
Luna danced in excitement, stamping her front hooves on the floor as she cheered.
"You'll be learning a song that came from my world, called Wild Thing" I told her "It's very basic, but it helps you in learning how to use and play power chords correctly"
"Well teach me teacher" She said as she nudged my shoulder with her hoof.
"Alright lets get stuck into it" I replied, nudging her back with my hand. We both took a seat and were faceing eachother. I sat on my amp while Luna sat on a big pillow. A princess must be comfortable, right?
"Okay, I'll play you the song first so you know what it sounds like, and then I'll teach you. Try to pick up as much as you can just by watching, like you did with The Campfire Song" I said as I moved my fingers up and down the neck of the guitar, strumming a series of power chords.

'Wild thing
You make my heart sing
You make everything.. groovy
Wild thing

Wild thing, I.. think I love you
But I wanna know for sure
So come on, and hold me tight
I love you'

As I continued the song, Luna was taking mental notes of my finger positions and how I was playing.
Once I finished, I looked up at Luna "Thats the song. I've written down the lyrics here" I said as I gave Luna the sheet.
She took it and studied it, before setting it down next to her pillow.
"Okay, i'm ready" she said as she strummed random notes, pumping her hoof in the air.
I couldn't help but laugh, as I fell off my amp clutching my sides.
Luna was chuckling "When you're done down there, I can start learning"
I got back up as my laughing died down and sat back on the amp. "Okay" I said "What you want to do it place your fing-magic on these frets" showing Luna where my fingers were pressing. She looked down at her guitar and applied her magic to the same frets that my fingers were. I played the song slowly, with Luna repeating my every move. Slowly, she got faster and faster at playing it, sure she still had some mistakes, but she was really good for a beginner. We sat there for four hours, having a break every hour. Eventually, she had the song down pat, with only the occasional wrong note.
"Alright, I want you to start off the song, and I'll play along with you but i'll be the rhythm okay?" Luna nodded.
She started to play the newly learned song, as I played the music inbetween. It was Luna's turn to sing.
As she sang, I couldn't believe my ears. Her voice was amazing, it was that of an angel.
When we finished the song, my mouth hung open.
"What? did I do something wrong?" asked Luna "There are no words that I know, that can describe how good that was" I replied, mouth still open. "I could kiss you right now"
Luna blushed intesely "Why don't you?"
I tackled Luna on her pillow and kissed her lips, our tounges fighting another battle. By now, they were used to these 'battles'.
Once our tounges were both 'defeated', we lay there on Luna's pillow. "I don't have any court duties to attend to tomorrow night, so how about I give you a magic lesson, and t-then may w-we c-can g-go on a.." She trailed off mumbling, her face turning bright red.
"What was that?" I asked, smiling at her cuteness.
"WOULDYOULIKETOGOONADATEWITHME?" She blurted.
"A date?" I asked, Luna simply nodded with embarrassment "I would love to" I smiled at her, which made her eyes go wide and she hugged me.
"YES!" She said as she flew up in the air, one hoof in the air the others facing down.
I couldn't hold in my giggles any longer as I rolled around on the pillow laughing. Luna slowly flew down with embarrassment and started to laugh aswell.
It was true though, we weren't officially 'dating'. The closest thing we had to a date was three weeks ago at Ponyville when we sat on the bridge for hours, but even that didn't cross the line into 'date terriotory'. Luna and I were just deeply inlove, and due to Luna's royal duties, there were not many times that we could do anything.
Luna started to close her eyes, and I could feel that my eyes were getting heavy. We soon fell asleep in eachothers arms/legs.

We awoke at four in the afternoon. Luna had already gotten up and cleaned herself up, and was silently watching me sleep.
I had gone back to my chambers and gotten changed into some light clothing, suitable for using magic. Luna had told me that the less you are carrying, or the less weight you are holding, the stress on your body is reduced, therefore making it easier to use magic.
I returned to Luna's room to find that she had laid out three books in a row, 'Levitation and You', 'A guide to magic by Starswirl the Bearded' and 'Conquering Mass and Space'.
Luna had me sit infront of her, as she lectured me. The notepad I was supplied with at the start of my lessons was starting to get full.
After ending her lecture, Luna levitated an apple over to me "Now I know you can hold a lot more than this, but that is not the point of the exercise. The point of this exercise is to learn to keep your focus on an object even if you come across some unexpected difficulties" She said in her 'smart' voice.
I used my magic to try and take hold of the apple, and I felt an amazing sensation as my magic covered Luna's. "Did you feel that too?" I asked.
"I did" she replied "It happens when two magic users are holding the same object. Ofcourse, the stronger magician wins" she said as she pulled it from my magical grasp, and then levitated it over to me so I could retake my postion on the apple "But it is the sensation itself that mystifies scientists across Equestria. Nopony knows why it happens, but it just does"
Luna released her grip on the apple and let me hold it. "Now, I want you to feed the apple to me" Luna said as she grinned.
"O-okay easy" I asked, her order took me by surprise.
"It will be a lot harder than you think Jackson. You need to consetrate on the apple so it does not fall, if it falls we will start again, and I do not mind because I am very hungry at the present moment" She chuckled "You must have me finish an entire apple before we can move on. Are you ready?" Luna asked.
"I am" I replied.
"Then we shall begin" she said as I started to levitate the apple over to her mouth, I started to laugh as it got closer and closer to her mouth and dropped the apple.
"You must concentrate Jackson. I told you this wouldn't be easy" Luna said glaring at my eyes. She was serious.
I levitated the apple back up to her face and Luna went to take her first bite. As her teeth sunk in around the apple, my magical aura dropped and the apple fell out of her mouth.
"Again!" She intructed as she levitated a new apple over to me from a nearby bowl and placed it before me.
I picked up the apple and moved it towards her face again. This time, she managed to take a bite out of the apple, but as she went in to get a second, the apple dropped.
"We are going to keep doing this until you get it right Jackson" She said with an evil grin.
"Okay, I will do my best" I replied.
Magic was extremely difficult. There was so much strain on my brain and body that I nearly feinted. It was soon explained to me that I was able to move Luna as I once did because of my emotions. Emotions and feelings have great power over magic. These were only few of the many answers that I had recieved from Luna as her 'apprentice' as she liked to call me.

An hour and a half later, Luna had finished a complete apple, I put the core in an empty bowl.
I was drenched with sweat. I'd never concentrated on anything that much in my life, and my body wasn't used to that much stress.
"Another!" Luna demanded and she cocked her head to the side "Please?" she asked politely.
She must have finished atleast five apple already, given how many bites she had taken.
I floated up an apple and took a bite out of it, before moving it over to Luna who took another bite.
We ate two whole bowls of eight apples in the time that had passed. Half an hour later it was six o'clock, and Luna has pushed me out of the door in a great panic before slamming the door behind me.
"Give me an hour, then meet me on the observation deck" was the only thing I heard before there was a sound of a door opening and tings being thrown around the room.
I turned to look at the guards who were on either side of the door, but they hadn't moved an inch. Then I remembered that I had a date this evening.
Running to my room, I pushed through the door and closed it behind me, locking it before I moved towards the bathroom. After washing myself up, I got changed into the nicest set of clothes I had, which were a blue, white and gold coat, which was given to me by Celestia as a gift, along with matching pants and a white shirt. After combing my hair, I noticed that I needed a haircut. The brown hair I wore was getting a little long. Next time that I visited the Carousel Boutique, I would have to ask Rarity to cut it for me. She did now a thing or two about style after all.
I had about twenty minutes before I needed to meet Luna, so I decided that I'd be early. I Went outside my room, and asked the guards to escort me to the observation deck. I had no idea where it was.
As we were walking, I was taking in the sights of the castle so I could remember it a little better. So far I had only been to the Dining Hall and the Court Room, aswell as the front room.
There were several flights of stairs that we had to take before finally we reached the observation deck.
The room was a big circular dome, with a balcony leading out to a secluded part of the deck. We were ontop of the mountain that the castle was built on.

I had waited around ten minutes, sitting on the bench, before I heard the large wooden doors open from behind me.
There, in the doorway, stood Princess Luna. She was wearing a black dress, with matching black shoes which wrapped up her leg and a small black rose was tucked up behind her right ear, held inplace by her mane.
My heart beat faster and faster as she walked up to me. "You look amazing" I told her as I bowed and held put my arms for a hug.
Luna curtsied and embraced me in a hug. "You look great aswell, thankyou for dressing up for me" she said as she kissed my cheek.
"Thankyou too" I replied as Luna dismissed the guards.
"I know it's not much, but it's the most beautiful place in the castle" Luna said lightly.
"It is beautiful, just like you" I said making her blush. I really liked to make her blush.

Luna led me around to the balcony, which was unshielded by the glass of the dome. I took in the sight of the kingdom. Lights were spread out in the distance and I could make out Ponyville. Luna pointed out the other towns and cities.
We were talking for what felt like a long time, before we fell silent. I looked at her and caught her staring at me before she quickly looked away.
"Luna" I said "Look at me"
The princess turned her head at me and looked in my eyes. The moon was reflecting from her eyes, making the colour stand out.
"I Love you. I love you more than life itself" I said softly, making Luna blush even brighter. "I've never felt anything like what I am now. I had never been loved in my life until I met you. You're cute and amazing and extremely beautiful and awesome and my mentor and you put up with me when I am difficult and yo-" "I get it" she chuckled, cutting me off "I feel the same way about you. Since I was saved from Nightmare Moon, nopony wanted anything to do with me. They didn't trust me, they didn't like me, but they had to because Celestia said they had to. When Celestia and I would walk through crowds, I could see that they respected her so much more than I. But now I don't need any of that, because I have you" She said as she pulled me close with her wing "And you're all I ever dreamed of" I felt myself blush, which was new. Luna saw my cheeks and smiled, before nuzzling my neck.
We returned out gaze over the kingdom.
"I love you Jackson" Luna said as she rested her head on my shoulder.
"I love you too" I replied, kissing her forehead.

Little did we know that Celestia was flying above us. We hadn't talked to her for a few days now, she must've been a little suspicous.
"I'm so happy for them" she said to herself, before flying back to the castle gates.
Luna and I sat there for hours, enjoying the night sky while it lasted.

This was the best night ever.
